Description

Some jobs do not track the number of processed units (item versions, indexes, sites, and so on). As a result, the number of processed units is empty when the job is finished, for example:

INFO  Job ended: Index_Update_IndexName=sitecore_web_index (units processed: )
INFO  Job ended: Sitecore.ContentSearch.SolrProvider.Agents.IndexingStateSwitcher (units processed: )
INFO  Job ended: Sitecore.Tasks.HtmlCacheClearAgent (units processed: )

If a certain job fails and BaseJobOptions.WriteToLog is true (that is a default value), Sitecore logs a separate message before the job ends. For Sitecore Client jobs, an error message can also appear in the UI.

Solution

Consider one of the following options:

• Upgrade your Sitecore XP environment to Sitecore XP 10.3.0. Starting from this version, the log message no longer includes (units processed: ) for jobs that do not track processed units.
• To hide the (units processed: ) entries, customize the SignalEnd processor of the <job> pipeline:
  1. Create a class with a method:

     public static void SignalEnd(JobArgs args)
     {
         var job = args.Job;
     
         /* Uncomment for 10.0 and newer
         if (job.Status.State == JobState.Aborted)
         {
             job.Status.LogInfo("Job aborted: {0}", job.DisplayName);
         }
         */
     
         if (job.Status.Processed > 0)
         {
             job.Status.LogInfo("Job ended: {0} (units processed: {1})", job.DisplayName, job.Status.Processed);
         }
         else
         {
             job.Status.LogInfo("Job ended: {0}", job.DisplayName);
         }          
     }

  2. To use the custom class instead of the default one, create a configuration patch file in the \App_Config\Include\zzz folder:

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
     <sitecore xmlns:patch="http://www.sitecore.net/xmlconfig/" xmlns:set="http://www.sitecore.net/xmlconfig/set/" >
         <pipelines>
             <job>
                 <processor set:type="Custom.Assembly.Class, Custom.Assembly" method="SignalEnd"/>
             </job>
         </pipelines>
     </sitecore>

  Note: If you suspect faulty behavior, for example, a specific job previously displayed the number of processed units but it is now empty, then consider opening a support case for an in-depth investigation.
